IGN: Singularity Review

If you've exhausted the library of stellar games that 2010 has already produced and are looking for something to help bridge the gap into this fall, Singularity isn't a bad choice. The gunplay is solid and there are a few memorable set pieces. It is a game ultimately limited by a lack of imagination where a neat time-manipulation idea is handcuffed to a by-the-numbers first-person shooter.

I haven't seen a whole lot of gameplay, I have seen two trailers so at the moment this is the best I have to go by. And th video store we go to (small town) just closed down so renting it isn't a great option.

Actually Feral_Kitsune, Guess what people who write magazines are called...journalists. And I guess since you are reading reviews in a game-related magazine you could even refer to them as "gaming journalists"

Damn them for giving me a good overview of games and critical feedback before I spend my hard earned money! Damn them all! /s

Most hardcore gamers would have used magazines before big sites like IGN came along, combined with word of mouth and renting first.

Well at least that's what I used to do. Maybe you weren't gaming since the late 80's though. ;)

In those days(late 80s, early 90s)where I come from the only option we had was to go to the shop look through the games there, read the back of the box and decide.. thats about it.. Sometimes we were lucky enough for a game to be on display in the shop! Yeah fun stuff indeed...

Singularity is from the people that brought us Soldier of Fortune, Jedi Knight 2, the newest Wolfenstein game and Quake 4. So you know roughly what to expect. I'm a bit of a Raven fan so I'm looking forward to playing this.

i already know the games i am getting this year unless something in my interest pops up, all these other games like singualrity i will eventually play, even if its 2 years later for $10 out of the bargain bin. so the 7.0 dosent mean anything because i like to play every game i can, so even if this game gets a 10/10, its still just on my bucket list with the same interest. i heard red dead redemption was amazing, but like i said, i wasent looking foward to it so i will eventually get to later when it hits the bargain bin.

depends how much moeny you have and what kind of a gamer you are. im not gunna go out and buy every game that get 10/10. those #'s mean nothing to me.

The game barely survived I see. If this were a playstation 3 exclusive I'm sure it would have scored a couple points higher with the power of the cell. Not bad for a multiplatform game. Hopefully they will learn from this

The game is hella fun. This is IGN people, they can be bought and have been bought before. I'm sorry, but it's my belief that someone didn't drop off a bag of cash to them, which is why they gave it a middle score. Nope, no proof, just a gut feeling. IGN sucks!

They are like the ONLY site that says MS rocked E3. What does that tell you? Do yourself a favor and at LEAST rent the game.

Stop being sheep and decide for yourself. Do any of you think for yourselves anymore? Sheesh....

I heard from users ( people who are not paid to review games...rather than people who either are paid to give good reviews..or who are not paid...to give bad reviews..if you know what I mean, goodie basket anyone? )...that it is actually extremely fun.

quote from guru3d from user review: "This is a hardcore game and it's not for pussies who like MW2" That sounds like a review I can get behind.

Anyone who hates generic military/Team America shooters and wants something different...then it sounds like a worthy game. I have to wait to get it because the PC version has a strange texture streaming bug... fingers crossed for a patch or driver update ( if that is the problem ) because I was looking forward to this game.
